Amyl acetate

Amyl acetate ( CAS 628-63-7 ), also known as pentyl ethanoate, is an ester solvent and flavoring agent with a characteristic banana-like odor recognized across multiple industries. It functions primarily as a solvent for coatings, lacquers, and resins, and as a flavoring ingredient in food and fragrance applications. In coatings and lacquer manufacturing, it dissolves nitrocellulose. This makes it a standard solvent choice for wood finishes and industrial surface coatings. Food and beverage producers use it as a flavoring agent to deliver banana, pear, and tropical fruit notes. It is frequently utilized in confectionery, beverages, and baked goods. In personal care formulations, it functions as a solvent and carrier in nail lacquers and hair products, where its evaporation rate supports film formation. Metalworking and lubricant formulators also employ it as a carrier solvent in cleaning and surface preparation compounds. Amyl acetate is available as a clear liquid in both technical and food-grade specifications. Food-grade material is supplied to meet FCC standards, supporting its use in flavor and fragrance applications. It is typically offered in drums and intermediate bulk containers. Purity levels are commonly at 98% or higher depending on the intended application. This versatile chemical remains a staple for manufacturers requiring reliable solvent performance and specific aromatic profiles. Contact us for supply of Amyl acetate Request Quote
